Not just any laundry room …
Notes:
- But a laundry room area that is functional and organized. An enclosed room where you can walk into, manage the household laundry needs, and close it off when not in use.
- Your laundry room needs to have enough space for at minimum two major appliances – washer and dryer with pedestals – connected plumbing for both cold and hot water with overflow drainage and outside ventilation for the dryer.
- The ideal laundry room will have cabinet and/or shelving space for laundry detergents and cleaners. It will also have a laundry sink for laundry pre-wash and soaking.
- So if you current laundry room lacks these amenities, it may be time to upgrade your laundry room. It will be worth the investment to simplify and manage an important household chore.

Perhaps you need to double the capacity
Notes:
- To manage and care for clothing items properly, you need to sort your laundry into lights – mediums – and darks. And then there may be another assortment into regular and delicates.
- So at minimum, you may have three laundry loads that need to be washed – dried – and folded on a weekly basis. And if you live in a home with many children, the loads could be six or more.
- That can make doing laundry a full day chore. So doubling the capacity by stacking your laundry appliances can cut the laundry chore time in half.
- Stacking is also a nice option for smaller laundry room areas – it opens up space for cabinets and other laundry room amenities. However, you may need to rearrange your plumping and dryer ventilation for the stacked position.

Add some shelving
Notes:
- Make sure your laundry room upgrade has a plenty of shelving and/or cabinetry. You will need the space for storing laundry detergents and possibly other household cleaning items.
- Use the shelving to stack folded clothing once they come out of the dryer. You can then assign your kids to pick up their clothing and return it to their rooms.
- Shelving will be handy for hanging and storing ironing boards – ironing appliances – clothes steamers – and other mini laundry appliances.

Make it part of your clean-up area
Notes:
- If your laundry room is on the main floor – next to your garage or outside area – then convert the laundry room into a combo laundry room/mudroom.
- A room where your family must enter into from the garage or outside to remove their muddy or dirty clothes before entering the home.
- This is a great setup for collecting “dirty clothes” for laundry cleanup. If space allows, install mudroom cabinets or hooks where work, play and outside clothes can be stored for future use.

Install a laundry sink/faucet and folding table
Notes:
- Don’t forget that your laundry room upgrade needs two important items; 1) laundry room sink with faucet; 2) folding countertop or table
- Both of these items will become useful when managing laundry needs. The sink for pre-washing and soaking clothes – the folding counter for removing clothes from the dryer to a space where they can be separated and folded.
